Barb, if there's anything left of him after I'm done, you're welcome to it. I'll try to keep him hydrated.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think I'd have to C David, and that hurts. F John, whatever it took, and M Gareth. That's definitely a tough one.
Those are big steps and good plans, Kat.

That's the important thing anyhow...

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
What is wrong with you people? Did you know that GDL has a blues band? That he reads from gay sex manuals at music festivals? That he calls you "lovely" when you get his autograph?
(That last one might just be me.)

Our wings are not tired.
I have a question for the hivemind.
I need to cull some books, both to make room and to get a little extra cash. Now that college is officially over, and any further schooling will likely not be English literature related, I can sell some of the English lit books. Some were horrendously expensive and I know I'll never read them again, so it's easy to throw them in the "sell" pile.
But what I really want to know: have any of you ever sold or gave a book away that you came to regret? What guidelines do you use for selling your books? (And I need to do the same thing with my cds and dvds...)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I give away books if I don't think I'll reread them. I'm a big rereader.
But I figure that most books, provided they're not very specialized, are available for repurchase pretty cheap at places like half.com, so it's pretty easy to buy a new copy.

Right? Or borrow from the library?

I regret that my mom gave away my Trixie Belden books. But I can't think of one book I've sold/given away that I wanted back.
I've loaned out a few books that never returned and there's a few people on a list for those. (I'm looking at you, John Cleland, who still has my first edition of Sam Shepherd's Hawkmoon.)
My guidelines for what goes: Anything thing that I read and know I will never read again. Anything that can easily be pick up at a library or a second had store. Anything thing that has been on the TBR pile for an embarrassingly long time.
